Man due in court charged with murder of Ennis taxi driver

A 53-year-old man is due to appear in court in Co Kerry later today charged with murdering Ennis taxi driver Liam Moloney.

The man was arrested yesterday during a raid on a holiday home in a remote area of Co Kerry.

A 15-year-old youth who was arrested during a follow-up operation in Shannon, Co Clare, is still being questioned by gardaí.

Mr Moloney, a 56-year-old father-of-four, was stabbed to death in his cab on the night of February 11.

His body was found in a field in Ruan, near Ennis, the following day, while his vehicle was found partially burned out in the village of Barefield.
